Project: Live with Purpose

It starts with belief. I used to think that was BS. I used to be that person that said dreams are not meant for people like me, with my background, from where I come from. But now here we are and I have my own podcast teaching you about belief. Clearly a full circle moment.

Before you tell me you aren't capable of something, please listen to this episode. Try out some of the strategies I listed. And by try I mean try for at least a month or two. Changing your belief mindset is something that takes a long time. I'm not going to lie and say it's a quick journey. But it's so damn worth it.

If you are struggling with self doubt, reach out to me on IG so we can chat @amber.sealey!

Tough times don't last, tough people do.

It breaks my heart to see people giving up on the things that matter to them. Especially just because it got hard. I find this time of year, just with seasonal changes and routine changes, so many people quit on things that are important just because it got hard.

But the thing to remember is that this is just a season. And often times, it's the things we quit on that are deep down the things that are actually going to help us get through the tough seasons. We just don't realize that at the time while we are going through it. Listen in for some of my experiences with quitting and how I finally got my sh*t together and stopped giving up.

As always, reach out to me on IG @amber.sealey!

Often times, we have the blinders on. We have a clear path and we never stray from it because that's just the way we planned our lives. But what if we took off the blinders for a second. What if we realized that there are other options that we can explore.

If you get bored or uninterested in your career path - that's OK. It happens to a lot of us. We just don't have that drive for the path anymore. So why not try things on for size. Do something on the side to see if it's an avenue you want to explore. If not - who cares you still have your main job. But if it is something you become interested in pursuing, it's worth entertaining that. It could take you down the most unexpected yet rewarding path you never knew existed.

Remember back in elementary school when you had track and field days? Remember how at the end of the day, all the teachers would hand out participation ribbons to every single person regardless of how well they performed?

Imagine if life was the same. When you get to the end, you're handed the same participation ribbon as everyone else. Congrats on making it through! Wouldn't that be underwhelming?

Don't live your life just for a participation ribbon. You owe yourself so much more than that. You owe yourself an extraordinary life where you make an impact. You owe yourself a life that makes you proud.

Life is situational. Think about it.. the people you know, the relationships you're in, the things you do each day.. it's all dependent on the current situation you're in. And all that changes, when your situation changes. But sometimes we walk through life and just handle whatever situations are thrown our way. But what if we actually took control and CREATED the situations we want. We made a life that we actually wanted.

Don't forget that your situation is up to you. You have the power to decide where you want to go in life. So take action NOW if you aren't in the situation you want to be in. Life will go on regardless, so it's on you to decide the situations you choose to be in.

Only 4% of the population can actually multitask effectively. So chances are, you are not in that 4%.. Even though most of us probably think we are. Now is your chance to really evaluate what good multitasking does for you. Because really, is doing two tasks at 50% effort really the outcome you desire?

When I realized that I was actually hurting my productivity by multitasking - my life and my business changed. Now i give everything my 100% effort which gives me better results AND leaves me with more time in the end after all!

Focus is everything. If you're a chronic multitasker, send me a DM on IG @amber.sealey so we can chat!

You've heard it before, consistency is the key to success. But personally, I feel like we hear that so often that it's just in one ear and out the other. We know that we need to be consistent but we just ignore it sometimes because everyone says it.

So today, I decided to take a different spin on consistency. I brought out my inner nerd and got into some math. I promise it's not hard, just some graphical representations of how consistency actually looks.

If you'd like to chat more about this, or if you are also nerdy like me, send me a DM and we can connect @amber.sealey!

We all do it.. we make up stories in our head that really don't serve us at all. We tell ourselves we are too busy and overwhelmed to get something important done. Or we tell ourselves we will never be a morning person because we will never be able to not hit the snooze button. But are those stories actually true?

Most of the time we build things up in our head so much that we CONVINCE ourselves they are true - when in reality it's not. We spend more time stressed about our busy life than actually doing things and being productive. Just because we convinced ourselves of that. It's time to take a step back and re-evaluate our thoughts.

Remember - the thoughts you tell yourself everyday are the things you search for. Let's make that something good! As mentioned in the episode, send me a DM to let me know one good thing that happened to you today @amber.sealey!

Summer is sadly coming to a close. All the fun is starting to slow down and it's time to get back to the routine that makes us feel at our best. Sometimes that can be a lot easier said than done.

But we need to stop overthinking it. Just do it gf. And please do yourself a favour and remove the word "motivation" from your vocabulary. Nothing will stunt your growth like that word. It's all in the discipline. 

Listen in for a little pep talk about just diving back in and doing the thing. As always, reach out to me on IG so we can connect @amber.sealey!

As humans, we tend to make assumption after assumption about people, situations ourselves etc. But if you really think about it, how often are any of those assumptions true? We always convince ourselves of these stories that we have just completely made up! How does that serve us?

Assumptions often just cause toxic behaviour, laziness and they squash our own belief. So I say we instead squash the assumptions and go live awesome lives that we are made to live!
